Descrizione

AN UNPUBLISHED LETTER FROM PIERRE LOUŸS TO HIS BROTHER, THE DIPLOMAT GEORGES LOUIS. Dated October 18, 1910. About 200 words in very legible script. Louÿs discusses the gradual recovery of his (first) wife, Louise de Heredia (daughter of José María de Heredia); shares some news about a lawsuit against him; and discusses politics (Louÿs expresses concern that a recent strike, rather than help the Socialists, will hasten France´s slide towards the right.) Signed with Louÿs' monogram. One folded page, with address, postmarks, and stamp on verso. In very good condition. ***** Louÿs and his half-brother Georges wrote each other on an almost daily basis until Georges' death in 1917. One thousand of these letters--but not this one--were published in "Mille lettres inédites de Pierre Louÿs à Georges Louis 1890-1917" (Paris, 2002). This was one of the great literary correspondences of the age.
